Benefits of technology

The present invention provides an improved and simplified electrical connection arrangement with better contact properties. The arrangement has a contact body with two contact devices, one in the bottom part and one in the top part. The top part contact device can make contact with the device-side cable, while the bottom part contact device can make contact with the connection-side cable. The arrangement is advantageous in that it eliminates the need for a mechanical connection between the two parts, reducing the risk of damage and electrical shock. The contact body can also hold a plug-in jumper for connecting multiple contact bodies. The arrangement can be easily detached and re-used as needed. The bottom part fastening means can be clamped without a tool, simplifying the connection process. The top part can be locked to the bottom part or each top part segment, ensuring accurate positioning of the contact devices. The invention provides a flexible and safe electrical connection arrangement for various applications.

Problems solved by technology

Thus, there is neither the danger of mechanical damage on the first contact device which produces the connection, nor the danger of an electrical shock by touching the first contact device which may be energized.

Embodiment Construction

[0028] The electrical arrangement in accordance with the invention is described below for connection of an electric motor using several preferred embodiments. The invention could also be equally well described using other applications for connection of other electrical devices; the electrical connection arrangement in accordance with the invention is completely independent of the special application and function of the electrical device which is to make contact with the electrical connection arrangement.

[0029]FIG. 1 shows, in an exploded view using one preferred embodiment, the important components of the connection arrangement in accordance with the invention, having a bottom part 1 which is used to hold the device-side cable 2, a top part 3 for holding a connection-side cable (not shown here) and a contact body 4 by which an electrical connection is established between the device-side cable 2 and the connection-side cable. Furthermore, the bottom part 1 is provided with fastening...

Abstract

An electrical connection arrangement for electrical connection of an electrical device with a bottom part for holding at least one device-side cable, with a top part for holding at least one connection-side cable and with a contact body for electrical connection of the device-side cable to the connection-side cable, the bottom part and the top part being formed essentially of an electrically insulating material. The connection is improved in that at least one fastening device for fastening at least one device-side cable is formed in the bottom part, that the contact body is located in the top part and has a first contact device and a second contact device, and that, in the joined position of the bottom part to the top part, the contact body makes contact with the device-side cable with the first contact device and makes contact with the connection-side cable with the second contact device.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The invention relates to an electrical connection arrangement for electrical connection of an electrical device, especially an electric motor, with a bottom part for holding at least one device-side cable, with a top part for holding at least one connection-side cable and with a contact body for electrical connection of the device-side cable to the connection-side cable, the bottom part and the top part being formed essentially of an electrically insulating material. [0003] 2. Description of Related Art [0004] Electrical connection arrangements of the type under consideration are known and are used for quite different contact-making and connection purposes. From plant construction for example terminal blocks are known which are designed conventionally for top-hat rail installation in a switching cabinet and consist of a bottom part and a top part (Phoenix Contact product catalog, COMBICON® Circuit board connection, ...
